Seen some of the warlord stuff at arkham, particularly like the British troops wih the berets, look like spec ops.

My question is can they be used for sotr and would they fit the look of the game. Also what are British like as a faction? Doesn't seem to be any of the cool stuff like monsters, vamps, mechs etc anyone have any exp playing with them

You can easily use most historical WWII 28mm minis with SoTR, the core platoon of each is basically a historical army with all the interesting stuff added as either characters of support options.

I use historical minis for my German army, mostly Warlord/Bolt Action and Artizan minis.

As for the British, they are a little weak on the mech front although you can easily create your own but the British have a lot of interesting characters and it'll be good to see more MI-13 and Temple released.

well the british are great at standing up against it, with the rule to let them reroll there horror checks and there pistols been very light AT against monsters and zombies means you can pack a punch at short range, very handy at killing that scary werewolf

they can have mechs if you count that as weird and lets not forget the wasp light mech, which has to be one of the best light mechs in the game with its two mode of fighting, vtol and battlesuit, you also have MI 13 and the templers, again very good at killing the monests of the world.

so yeah the hard working british soldier is a match for any weird thing out there
